Default Rare SFP 350 (w/ ISF front end)....??

I know that white ones are hard to come by, and this one seems pretty sweet with the IS-F front. The price seems a little low, but if I was looking, it'd definitely be worth a look....IMHO.

Thoughts?? I do love the front end of the ISF!

Looks pretty good, definitely worth checking out, not really a fan of the isF conversion but it sounds like it was done professionally. Make sure u do your research before u pull the trigger on it.

Check out auto check reports or carfax I see there is only 3 times mileage was reported, could be rolled back too, you should check out maintance history from Lexus if even they don't have enough history report, you should take the car to mechanic and give attention to steering wheel and seats if it's too glossy steering then car had over 90k maybe 100k.

Lots of people do different tricks by not reporting actual mileage. Good luck

I think that's being a little bit too paranoid.

Seller seems to be pretty honest and the mileage seems about right for a 2007 model....I wouldn't look into the mileage thing too much. It is a good idea to get the Lexus service history and then the Carfax as well (eBay provides the Autocheck for you)

A professional inspection is always a good idea too, but the car is in CT and OP is in TX.

Around 65k miles for an 07 is about right. On avg, people drive around 1k miles a month, so 12k miles a year. Car is a little short of 5 years, so it's a little bit over the avg, but nothing extreme. Mine only has 40k and I drive the crap out of it. It's just the previous owner only drove mine for like 6k/year. :3

I would definitely be interested, IF I wasn't already an IS350 owner.
